Product details
Overview
MAX6702AZKA+ from Maxim Integrated is an active-high push-pull microprocessor supervisory IC that monitors +3.3V supply voltage with a 3.08V reset threshold, provides 140ms reset timeout, independent watchdog output (WDO), and power-fail warning via PFI/PFO. It operates from 1.2V to 5.5V and guarantees valid reset down to VCC = 1V, serving in critical µP power monitoring for industrial controllers and telecom equipment.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6702AZKA+ datasheet, MAX6702AZKA+ pinout, MAX6702AZKA+ application, or MAX6702AZKA+ equivalent, key selection factors include its active-high reset output, 3.08V fixed VCC threshold (suffix 'Z'), 1.6s watchdog timeout, 0.62V power-fail comparator input, and SOT23-8 package compatibility with multivoltage supervision designs.
Technical Context
The MAX6702AZKA+ implements a dual-comparator architecture: one fixed-threshold monitor for VCC (3.08V) and a separate 0.62V reference-based comparator for PFI, enabling early power-fail detection. Its reset generator asserts active-high RESET for ≥140ms after VCC rises above threshold or MR deasserts.
The integrated watchdog timer requires WDI toggling within 1.6s (typ) to prevent WDO assertion; WDO is push-pull active-low and latches on timeout unless cleared by WDI edge or MR low. Unlike A-version variants, MAX6702AZKA+ deasserts WDO only after valid WDI transition - not automatically upon VCC recovery.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Reset Threshold | 3.08V (fixed, suffix Z), ±3% over -40°C to +125°C - sets precise brownout detection point for +3.3V systems |
| Reset Timeout Period | 140ms (min), 280ms (max) - ensures µP initialization completes before release |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.6s (typ), 0.96–2.52s over temperature - provides robust firmware hang detection window |
| Power-Fail Input Threshold | 0.62V (typ), 6mV hysteresis - enables adjustable external voltage monitoring via resistor divider |
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.2V to 5.5V - supports operation during deep brownout and across multiple rail systems |
| Reset Output Type | Active-high push-pull - drives logic-high reset directly without external pull-up |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +125°C - qualified for automotive-grade and industrial embedded environments |
Pinout & Package
MAX6702AZKA+ uses an 8-pin SOT23 package (package code K8+2, outline 21-0078), surface-mount, RoHS-compliant, with 0.65mm pitch and 2.9mm × 1.6mm footprint.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - MR | Active-low manual reset input | CMOS-compatible; internal 50kΩ pullup to VCC; forces reset when pulled low |
| 2 - VCC | Main supply input | Primary reset threshold monitor input; powers push-pull outputs; valid from 1.2V |
| 3 - GND | Ground reference | Common return for all internal comparators, timers, and outputs |
| 4 - PFI | Power-fail input | High-impedance node tied to 0.62V reference; accepts external voltage divider for secondary rail monitoring |
| 5 - PFO | Power-fail output | Active-low push-pull output asserted when PFI < 0.62V - signals impending supply collapse |
| 6 - WDI | Watchdog input | Edge-sensitive; clears watchdog timer on rising/falling transition; minimum pulse width 50ns |
| 7 - RESET | Active-high reset output | Push-pull, logic-high when asserted; guaranteed valid down to VCC = 1V |
| 8 - WDO | Watchdog output | Active-low push-pull; asserted on WDI timeout or VCC/RST_IN undervoltage - used for NMI or fault logging |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Active-high push-pull RESET | Eliminates need for external pull-up resistor; reduces BOM count and layout area in +3.3V µP systems |
| Independent WDO and RESET outputs | Enables simultaneous system reset and non-maskable interrupt generation without shared timing constraints |
| 0.62V precision PFI comparator | Supports accurate power-fail warning on auxiliary rails (e.g., 1.8V, 2.5V) using standard resistor dividers |
| Guaranteed reset validity to VCC = 1V | Ensures deterministic µP reset state during severe brownout or battery depletion conditions |
| 140ms minimum reset timeout | Meets JEDEC JESD78 reliability requirements for µP initialization timing margin |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6702AKA+ | Same package and pinout, but A-version: WDO deasserts automatically when VCC recovers (no WDI edge required) | Better suited for systems where watchdog must auto-clear on supply recovery without firmware intervention | Select MAX6702AKA+ if automatic WDO clearance on VCC rise is required; MAX6702AZKA+ requires explicit WDI toggle |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | TI part with 3.3V threshold, 200ms reset delay, open-drain RESET, no PFI/PFO or WDO | Lacks power-fail warning and independent watchdog output - limited to basic reset-only use cases | Choose TPS3808G33DBVR only when PFI/PFO and WDO functions are unnecessary and open-drain reset suffices |
Compared with MAX6702AKA+, MAX6702AZKA+ offers stricter watchdog latching behavior ideal for fault-logging systems, while TPS3808G33DBVR trades feature depth for lower cost and simpler integration where dual comparators and watchdog are omitted.

FAQ
What is the reset threshold voltage of the MAX6702AZKA+?
The MAX6702AZKA+ has a fixed VCC reset threshold of 3.08V (±3% over temperature), corresponding to the 'Z' suffix in its part number. This value is guaranteed across -40°C to +125°C and is optimized for reliable supervision of +3.3V supply rails in industrial and telecom applications. The MAX6702AZKA+ does not support adjustable thresholds on VCC - only PFI and RST_IN pins accept external dividers.
Does the MAX6702AZKA+ provide an active-high or active-low reset output?
The MAX6702AZKA+ provides an active-high push-pull reset output (RESET pin). This is confirmed by its '2' designation in the MAX670x family naming convention and verified in the Pin Description table. Unlike MAX6701(A) or MAX6703(A), the MAX6702AZKA+ asserts logic-high on reset, eliminating the need for an external pull-up resistor and simplifying interface with µPs requiring high-active reset inputs.
What is the function of the PFI and PFO pins on the MAX6702AZKA+?
The PFI (Power-Fail Input) pin on the MAX6702AZKA+ connects to an external resistive divider to monitor secondary supply voltages, comparing them against an internal 0.62V reference. When the divided voltage falls below this threshold, the PFO (Power-Fail Output) pin - an active-low push-pull output - asserts to signal imminent power loss. This enables early-warning shutdown sequencing in systems with multiple rails, such as telecom base stations or industrial PLCs.
How does the watchdog timer behave on the MAX6702AZKA+?
The MAX6702AZKA+ watchdog timer requires a WDI edge (rising or falling) at least every 1.6s (typical) to remain cleared. If no transition occurs, WDO asserts low and remains latched until a valid WDI edge or MR low is detected. Unlike A-versions, the MAX6702AZKA+ does not auto-clear WDO on VCC recovery - it strictly requires WDI activity, making it suitable for fault-logging applications where persistent watchdog assertion is intentional.
Is the MAX6702AZKA+ compatible with lead-free soldering processes?
Yes, the MAX6702AZKA+ is RoHS-compliant and qualified for lead-free reflow soldering. The '+' suffix explicitly denotes lead-free packaging per Maxim's ordering nomenclature. It supports standard Pb-free reflow profiles with peak temperatures up to +260°C and is rated for soldering at +300°C for 10 seconds, matching IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020 requirements for moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL-1).
